There is a large Azorean community northern California. Mendocino, California. The cliffs on the Ocean of Mendocino reminded my Great grandfather's of his home in Flores
Funny you should mention that in fact because Flores is actually the antipode (the furthest point away on the planet, directly on the opposite side of the globe) to Adelaide. So pretty much as far as you could go! Good thing you have lots of incredible beauty closer to home so you don't really need to!
Amazing video as always Gabe. The island looked amazing and I definitely have to get to the Azores one day. Though, from what I remember from your flight videos getting there you weren't a big fan of SATA. Maybe I'll have to get there some other way. 😅
If you’re coming from the US I might try United! You’ll be stuck with SATA for the inter-island flights but that’s not so bad, they’re short; bring your own snacks though there is zero service and you’ll be lucky if you get a hello 😁
You might find some entertainment on São Miguel but everywhere in the Azores is very sleepy. It’s all about slow pace of life and being close to nature

I am planning to visit Azores this December but not really sure whether it is a good time to go there or not, lets see :)
Hey Gabe, Wrong direction? I live in upstate NewYork and have been to Hawaii 35 times. On the return trip it takes 24 hours of being awake, if one doesn't sleep on the flights. It is, of course, gorgeous but this excellent video reminds me of a smaller Hawaii. I should look into this - at half the distance in the opposite direction! Thanks - Jim
What is the name of natural pool? I like your videos. However, may you please include more practical recommendations? Price for car rental. Time you need to arrive to those places. etc.
Reminds me a lot of Hawaii! My great grandparents are from Sao Miguel and Madera. I hope to go to visit soon. Many Azoreans immigrated here to Hawaii in the 1800s to work the sugar plantations.
You know what’s actually unmatched? The capacity for people like you to leave malicious and mean-spirited comments online. I’d bet you would never speak to me like that in person. If you don’t like seeing me so much you can point that out in a polite way; you might even have a valid critique! Instead you bring hate to the comments, and nothing constructive. Try thinking about what you’re putting out into the world next time.
@@airedition you should make a video with that! It will get you over $30!! 60 minutes of your face covering the screen and whining instead of changing.
Thank you Gabe for the awesome videos and allowing us to ride along with you on your worldwide journeys. I retired from the airline industry in 2020 after almost 44 years of a job that I loved; and of course all the travel that came with it. By far my favorite place on the planet is Greece. I haven't been to the Azores, but after watching your videos it's definitely on my bucket list. ✈️
